[kyear2]

Dont think it is fair to have to go back to change the pick as others would have picked.players he may have wanted.

 

[Jarquis]

Is that a routine whinge vs. Eds post or a genuine query?

Huh?

 

[kingkallis]

Dont think it is fair to have to go back to change the pick as others would have picked.players he may have wanted.

Why not? Rule is a rule!

Eds will have to simply pick another player for that particular round. Changes have to be made - simple as that

 

[Eds]

Point me to the rule you're referring to KK?

 

[kingkallis]

Are you serious? The name of the FC team was British Guiana and NOT Guyana back in those days. You can check the same in his Cricinfo profile as well.

And British Guiana doesnt start with 'G', my friend!

 

[Eds]

Guyana IS British Guiana though. They're the same thing. One was whilst the team under British rule, the other whilst independent.

And also, one word of British Guiana starts with 'G'. *shrugs*

I'll let Jager and Cevno (whose clause it was) decide I guess. Both of the backups for the pick have also gone since I made the pick which is an annoyance as well.

Well in that case we'll have to take Garner away from Blakus because Garner was a Vice President of the USA, not an actual President, and then take Gilchrist away from Marcuss because the President of the USA was Adams not Adam.

We have already set a precedent of being a little flexible with the clauses. Therefore Guyana should be OK.

Or put it this way. If you currently walked into the Guyana Cricket Club foyer you'd probably see a plaque on the wall listing the clubs famous players. It would be headed 'Guyana Cricket Club - Famous Players', and Walcott would be on it.

Guyana IS British Guiana though. They're the same thing. One was whilst the team under British rule, the other whilst independent.

I dont mind if Jager and Cevno allows you to keep the player. I was just going by the rule.

And about the backups gone - even kyear got my No.3 - Chapell!

Fair enough.

And about the backups gone - even kyear got my No.3 - Chapell!

Little bit different...

Could people double check their own picks and clauses to make sure I haven't made any screw ups?

 

[Jarquis]

Eds should absolutely have Walcott. Still think he was wrong to do the order though.

 

[Eds]

Jager's decision as to whether he wants to use the order or not. Don't really see what the problem was - anyone else could have done the order if they'd have asked?

 

[Himannv]

Allan Border, (played for a team starting with G)

 

[Himannv]

Still think he was wrong to do the order though.

You're Marcuss, your opinion does not count due to its general lack of quality.

 

[kyear2]

when was the last time jager was online?

 

[Red]

Don't really see the issue/problem with someone besides Jager doing the draft order (he must be having a big weekend!), so I've chucked them (R. 5 & 6) in to the updated list above.

 

[kingkallis]

Naah, we have an issue with someone else besides Jager doing the order ( Me and Marcuss - cause we are way behind everyone else...lol )
